Jefferies cuts estimates and its price target on Finisar (NASDAQ: FNSR) from $22 to $18 following roughly in-line Q3 but gave Q4 guidance that was below Street expectations.

"We believe it’s likely that the company will beat its guidance for Q4 given our insights into N. American spending trends. However, we continue to have concerns that Cisco’s acquisition of Lightwire will create an overhang on Finisar shares until there’s more certainty around the potential impact."

The firm cut Q4 EPS estimates from $0.25 to $0.22, FY12 from $0.91 to $0.88 and FY13 from $1.45 to $1.25.
